I don't know whether or not the previous advice was useful, but I've had
notification in my inbox of a newly created APAR on the same subject which
I thought it best to include for completeness

Bo:

That sounds like a problem that we had and which led to the creation of
APAR IC78414:
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg1IC78414

It seems to relate specifically to systems using Volume License Key
activation. However I believe this was fixed in client level 6.3.0.5 and
you explicitly stated you'd used v6.3.0.16 for the backup and the same
client patch level for the restore. I'm assuming this means that the same
interim fix was used for the restore? This is important because the issue
we encountered occurs during the restore not the backup. It might just be
worth checking the client version in your WinPE environment.

Other possible causes are described here, but these seem to be limited to
situations where the OS wasn't licensed in the first place !!??
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21415760

It may be that neither are applicable, but hopefully the causes give you an
insight into your issue?
